Huntington fire station is running a prize treasure hunt over the summer for all the family.
It involves downloading the what3words app to navigate around nine locations.
Each one will include an image of a piece of firefighting equipment which should be noted down on the entry form.

The what3words organisation has divided the world into a grid of 3m x 3m squares. It has given each square a unique identifier made of three random words – a what3words address.
This can help emergency services pinpoint the location of callers,s especially in remote areas. It’s easier to use than other systems like tracking mobile phone signals or using map reference numbers.
